What Can You Do? (a poem)
Current mood: 
stressed
What can you do when your days are so dull
you work to get through the day?
What can you do when your life is so stressed
you wish you could fly away?
What can you do when each day that goes by
your life just seems to get worse?
When the more you try to fix everything
the more you feel like you're cursed?
What can you do when you know it's not you
who's failed to so much as try?
When you wake up each day and the first thing you want
is to lay your head down and cry?
What can you do when your body won't work
but you have bills to pay?
When you look all around but nothing you've found
will help you find a way?
What can you do when you feel that your soul
is just plain worn and beat?
When you sit at home and worry alone
over how your family will eat?
What can you do when it's only you
with the burden on your back?
When you hide from your kids that life's on the skids
and the future just looks black?
